WILDOMAR: Clinton Keith Road closures expected

WILDOMAR ---- Construction activity is expected to shut down the Clinton Keith Road overpass across Interstate 15 in one direction for several hours starting Wednesday night and resuming Thursday night, transportation officials announced.

The northbound lane is scheduled to be closed to through traffic from 11 p.m. Wednesday to 4 a.m. Thursday, while the southbound lane is scheduled for closure from 10 p.m. Thursday to 3 a.m. Friday.

The closures are required to allow construction crews to demolish the barrier on the north side of the bridge, officials said.

During the closures, traffic will be detoured away from the overpass.

The work is part of the Clinton Keith/Interstate 15 interchange project in which the bridge and roadway leading up to it will be widened and ramps leading to and from Clinton Keith will be widened as well.

Construction work on the interchange is expected to continue for the next year and a half. Information and updates are available on the department's project website at
